$ETH

This is not just a cryptocurrency, but a full-fledged platform for the development of decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts. One of the most interesting features of Ethereum is its ability to support various tokens of the ERC-20 and ERC-721 standards, which has allowed the emergence of the DeFi (decentralized finance) and NFT (non-fungible tokens) ecosystem.

Recently, Ethereum transitioned to a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus algorithm with the Ethereum 2.0 upgrade, which significantly reduced energy consumption and increased transaction speed. This makes it more environmentally friendly and scalable, opening new horizons for the implementation of blockchain technologies in various areas of life.

Thus, Ethereum continues to be in the spotlight not only as a financial instrument but also as the foundation for innovative technologies of the future!
